This is a clean and very small campground. The lock is fun to watch and the Birds are everywhere.It is a 30 minute drive to get to town and shop.

Campground and the hosts are wonderful. The road going in gets worse every year and if you get stuck when its wet after rain, you trash your vehicle. All because of the dump trucks and quary.

We are traveling Florida for the winter, staying at COEs and state and national parks when we can. Had a 2 week stay in Ortona and I have to say, this has been my favorite campground so far. The views are great. We walked over to the damn daily to watch the boats pass thru the locks. There is a street on the other side with a couple of benches and we would walk there as well. Quiet, sites are good. The hosts are wonderful. They even planned a get together for the campers on Xmas Eve. We will definitely be returning.

Very clean and quiet, the only minor problem was bath house at our end was closed

We had a great time at Site 18!! Great fellow campers as well. Did have some trouble getting in after the gate closed but I was rescued by the wonderful host( and even he struggled with lock)
Will defiantly go back to watch the boats and enjoy the peaceful well-kept camp grounds

We loved the place. Sites are comfortable, the view is great, close to the river for fishing and very clean.

A picturesque place to enjoy the wildlife of the Sunshine State. This campground is surrounded by farm land. The wildlife is incredible not to mention the peacefulness. We look forward to our time here each year! We did a video of this beautiful place on our website www.gypsyrubbertramps.com and our YouTube channel - Gypsy Rubber Tramps

Unfortunately, access to the viewing area adjacent to the locks has been closed as well as access to the other side of the river.

Very scenic view of the river and absolutely no noise pollution. Very friendly staff as well.
